A powerful reenactment of Sojourner Truth’s Ain’t I a Woman will be performed by the reverend Deborah A. Zuill on November 16 at 6:30 p.m. at Total Tennis on Old King’s Highway in Saugerties.
Rev. Zuill, who is also an actor, is well-known for her reenactments at many venues in the Northeast and also Pennsylvania. She has served as the pastor at the historic Katsbaan Reformed Church in Saugerties for the past two years. She portrays the iconic African American Sojourner Truth, an 18th-century suffragist, abolitionist and human rights activist who was named one of the “100 most significant Americans of all time” by Smithsonian Magazine in 2014. Rev. Zuill has portrayed Sojourner Truth for the past 23 years.
